Research interests
- Computational Social Science
- Modeling of socio-psychological processes: enriching agents in computational models with a cognitive and psychological internal structure that co-evolves along with their observable behavior
- In particular: opinion dynamics and interpersonal motivational mechanisms underlying behavior
- Mathematical tools for agent-based models: Markov chain aggregation (lumpability), information-theoretic measures of emergence
- Empirically informed agent-based models
- Visualization of complex systems, linguistic networks and political spaces
